He said, “The unique
way to succeed is to encourage private sector as this is a crucial way to
achieve sustainable inclusive growth. When young people have access to jobs,
then they have a chance at a better life, and the society has a chance at
development.

“We need more Africans
to succeed in Africa, and then we can start working on changing the mentality
of other Europeans, and other continents, on having a positive mind towards
Africa. We plan to gather a lot of players to build and develop the African
private sector.”

Continuing, he said: “African
governments need to come together to work with the African Union to create a
future for the young generation. They also need to deal with demography because
if the trend of five to eight children per woman continues, poverty would never
end. And if you ask these women, it is not their choice; it is as a result of
decreased education and forced marriages.”

He also told the entrepreneurs:
“Your nationality does not hinder your success. If you can succeed in Nigeria,
you can succeed anywhere in the world.”
